Welcome to the Seedfolks' Community Seed Libraries site. We're a dedicated group of seed-lovers living in Oakland, CA who believe in empowering our community to take control of their own genetic resources.

Visit our Seed Library, Oakland's very first, at the Cesar Chavez Branch of the Oakland Public Libraries. Seeds are available free to the public during all open library hours. We ask that those who do take seeds commit to returning some seeds at the end of the growing season, thus making our library an ever-expanding interchange. Informational material is located onsite.

We have created a model for implementation of seed libraries into OPL branches and community gardens in hopes that we can foster and support seed saving efforts in neighborhoods across our city.
